Sam has a love interest in the next book.

The problem with having such a huge cast of characters is that I can't always find a good reason to bring back characters I'd like to revisit.

Charlaine explains the importance of Walmart -whether you like them or not

The deep meaning of the Walmart references is that many, many small-town residents rely on Walmart for many of their needs. We will not get into the politics of that here. However, rest assured that no sponsorship agreement exists. If authors were able to obtain brand sponsorships, more of them would be able to quit their day jobs a lot sooner.

Sponsorship? I have no idea how that would work, but an interesting idea. However, I'd rather be sponsored by an upscale jewelry store!

julia_petruniak, you obviously do not live in a small Southern town. Wal-Mart is the social center of the town, for towns lucky enough (I know, moot point) to have one. Especially if you have a Super Center!

Which came first Sookie or Bella ?
books, I don't want them to end.

I hope I don't need defending for not being "Twilight." There's no rivalry between Stephenie Meyer and me. People can read both series and enjoy them, I hope, and I've met many people who do. It's not like you had to back one series or another, that there was a struggle for supremacy!

The only issue I've ever had is being accused of "ripping off" Meyer's plotline. Since my books predate hers by years, that is inaccurate and insulting. But that's a mistake her fans make, not Stephenie Meyer herself!

I think Charlaine is totally correct within this statement, i have read both series of books and they are both very good, even though i do prefer Charlaine's series, Twilight i did still enjoy.
